There is a paper published at New
York that is certainlj a unique pub
lication. It is called Printer's Ink,
and its object is to teach its readers
the art of successful advertising.
Millions of dollars are annually spent
in tliis country in advertising, much
of which fails to bring satisfactory re
turns, because the advertising was
improperly done. Perhaps the ad
vertisement was badly written, or
lacked conspicuousness; or may be it
was inserted in the wrong papers, or
at an unseasonable time. Printers
Ink aids the inexperienced advertiser
by snowing Imn how to avoid such
errors, and by teaching him how to
advertise to as to j;et the greatest re
turns for the least expenditure, whicn
is the bases of Mtccefrsful advertising.

"This was tometiine a paradox," as
Hamlet says. Since, however, the
people cf America and other 'ands
have been enabled to pit Hostetter's
Stcma;h Hitters against that unseen
foe, malaria, it is no longer a paradox,
but an easy possibility. Whatever
malaria evolves its misty venom to
poison the air, and decaying un hole
some vegeiation iniprcgnater the
water, there, in the very stronghold
of miasma, is lbe auxiliary potent to
disarm the foe and assure cflicicnt
protection. Fever and ague, bilious
remittent, dumb sgue and ajrue cake,
no matter how tenaciously they have
fasicnm" their clutch on the system,
are first forced to relax their srras?
and eventually to abandon it alto
gether. But it ic preventive force
that should chiefly recommend the
Hitters to persons dwelling in malaria

A Fine Monument to Be Dedicated

MEN WHO WII.I. ItE I'ltESENT.
A Worthy Tribute To The Peoplo Who
Laadel on Plymouth Eock-The Pil
grim SIcEDmect.
Plymouth (Mass.), July 21.
The day for which a:l this old
colony country has been looking
siuce the early til'ties, the day ot
the dedication ot the great Pilgrim
monument, is at hand. Even now
old Plymouth is ia holiday attire.
Arches span the streets through
which the procession is to pas9 and
handstands and pyrotechnic frames
are in place, while private houses
and public buildings are. it is plain
to see, only waiting the word of
command to bloom fourth in bunt
ing in honor of the day and it3
glorious memories. This will be
on Thursday, August 1.
It was in 1853 that tbe proposi
tion was first made to commemorate
tho landing of tbe pilgrims. Tbe
Pilgrim Society, which was formed
in 1820 to perpetuate the memories
of those from whom it takes it
name, selected a high hill over
looking tho harbor ms the site for
the monument aid committed tbe
task nf tbe design to Hammott
Billings, the famous Boston ar
chitect. The cost of the ontire work has
been 20MOO. Tbe pedestal and
tablets were built by contriou
tions from all parts of tbe United
States. The igure of Faith was
the gift of the late Oliver Ames,
uncle of tbe present Governor of
Massachusetts. Toward the figure
ot Morality the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts appropriated $10,
000, and for tbe accompanying
relief the State of Connecticut gave
$3000. Tbe figure cf Education,
with its tablet, wasthe gift of
Roland Mather of Hartford, Conu.,
while for that of Freedom, with its
tablet an appropriation of $1C,00J
was secured lron the United State
i Government, niaiuly through th-
exertions cf John D. Long. Law
and its tablet were paid for by ton -tributions
from the legal fraternity
throughout the country.
The corncr-stcnc was laid August
